Hey anyone know race car friendly smog shops? Im stationed in the area but my cars registered in fl so i dont have to smog. But im sellin the car and i guess banks require a smog twst in cali to get a loan for one

Im looking to buy an 06 wrx which is located in the bay area, specifically near Bernal Heights, and was wondering about good mechanics around there. I am personally from lake Tahoe so am not extremely familiar with the car scene down there. Also, I can not find a good forum besides this one to post this question on. If anyone can give me any suggestions about good mechanics down their, that either you've had good experiences with, or have herd good things about, it would be extremely helpful. It can just be the dealership too if they have a good reputation for evaluating used cars, but would prefer something that would cost a little less money.
Thanks for your guys help,
Ryland

Hey guys, I have a 2006 wrx with a full Cobb turbo back exhaust that I just bought that I need to get smoged at a place that can just "pass" me, if you know what I mean (:. The previous owner had this car smoged, with the same exhaust set up it has now, down at a place in san francisco that was recommended to him by the dealership. I am currently located in tahoe city and am looking for a place closer to me. This could be a place anywhere from Roseville to Sacramento. If anyone has had this type of thing done before and has a shop in mind near any of these areas, then a heads up on the shop name and where it is would be great.
Thanks,
Ryland

Yo, I wouldn't be leaving any trace of any requests for illegal activity concern mying the BAR and EPA. Those fools are crazy and don't play. On the flip side, I heard they have a BAR referee at American River College. They do modified smogs and special situations a little different than at a smog shop. Research online, or call the tech Ed Dept and just ask questions and be cool. They are all really nice and helpful at ARC.
